To anyone interested in football quiz games it is probably a well-known fact that the two largest cities never to have boasted a First Division football club are Plymouth and Hull.The fact that Hull City have never played in Division One is perhaps the most surprising,for even though the Tigers of Boothferry Park have had to contend with a hotbed of Rugby League,support for the City club always is there when the Tigers are doing well. It is also surprising that there has never
before been a truly definitive history published on Hull City FC.Now,long-time Hull supporter and statistician, Chris Elton,has rectified that with this book, a volume which will answer just about any question one could ask on the Tiger's story.There is a complete record of every first-team competitive game - results, scorers, line-ups and attendances - as well as a narrative history of the club and its grounds,illustrated biographies of over 100 Tiger's stars down the years and every manager.Matches to Remember, additional historical and statistical features coupled with hundreds of photographs complete a superb book about one of the Football League's most enduring
clubs.A very scarce, collectable copy - subscribers list only goes up to No 341, the first 3 copies being presentation copies to the football club,the Football League and the Football Association.
